Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

[prompto does relent and allows himself to look at the screen, marveling over at the cutscene. there's no context, so he could easily not be spoiled for it. ...so he gives in and allows himself to enjoy, dammit; peering in close, amazed by the fluidity overall--]

I know literally nothing of this game.

[turning to look back at the other]

...but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be getting it.

Basically it's about a group of weary warriors making a cross country trip to reach the capital of a neighboring country for peace talks. We wanted to add some story to the element of traveling and exploring the realm and still give players a chance to play with the game mechanics.

[ he's so proud of his baby game. it took him forever to make it work out and then to get the flaws sorted out and while he was sure that there will still be issues with it, it's still not bad considering everything involved.]

I hope you will enjoy it. We've already have plans for events in the works.

That sounds really fun...

[prompto crosses his arms and does his best not to pout, because he doesn't want to appear like a manchild that loves playing videogames more than anything else.]

[but he does love videogames]

Will we have to pay to get those events?

It's going to be. I hope.

[ yoon-sung will not judge. after all he is a man-child who loves video games more then actually making an attempt to keep any of his relationships going beyond the whole dating point. ]

I don't see why you would have to on top of the normal server fees for an MMO.

[prompto nods and smiles, satisfied with the answer. it's good to know that game developers aren't entirely trying to take money away from the gamers in every possible way. it's actually a relief that a guy about his age is the one working on an upcoming game]

Sounds cool, dude. I honestly can't wait to try this out.

[uncrossing his arms, he walks around yoon-sung, lightly hitting an open palm with a fist. he's amped.]

If you need someone to test out your game, gimme a shout.

[prompto doesn't want to extend his welcome in gaming headquarters]

[ he couldn't say if there weren't going to be some extras that would needed extra funds, but he saw no reason to make a game that would cost for every little upgrade made to the program once it was out in the public.

he just glances at the pizza guy before making a face and flipping through a couple pieces of paper before finding a list and ripping off the bottom portion. this yoon-sung held out to him. ]

Here. You'll have to have an active account with the servers when we announce the beta-testing in the next couple of days, but once there, just input the codes. It'll give you a chance to run through the beta without hoping on the random drawing we'll be hosting.

--dude?!

[prompto almost doesn't let yoon-sung finish before he's already excitedly shouting, taking the piece of paper and holding it in his hands like it's the most precious piece of information in the universe]

[his eyes may be sparkling]

Seriously! You gotta let me repay you! This is-- This is so awesome!

[ that kind of reaction is one of the main reasons why he likes making games. sure it's fun to build a world and populate it and watch people as they try to find the secrets and hidden Easter eggs built into the games, but that there was the biggest reason. seeing someone happy about a game he helped create was worth the headache getting there. ]

Don't worry about it. We get four codes each to hand over to whoever and since I don't know very many people in this city, it's really nothing to give it to someone that will enjoy it.

[ after all, there wasn't much he really needed in this place. he had david and the rest of his team, so he didn't need anything special. most of his life he had been given special treatment. ]

Just enjoy it.

[you know he definitely will... if his reaction is anything to go by so far]

My name's Prompto Argentum!

[he saves the code on the inside of his vest where he had previously put the money for the pizza]

You've... you've gotta tell me if you want pizza or anything else again, I'll make sure to get it to you right away. Alright?
